That would be correct.

This boils down to the way RHEL does their channel subscription
resolution in yum, and the best way to solve it is to break the RHEL and
Centos configs apart to reference different paths in the repo file (the
paths can essentially be a symbolic link on the mirrors).

Status in OurDelta - Builds for MySQL: New

Bug description:
The yum repository setup as described on http://ourdelta.org/centos does not work.

I'm setting up on an x86_64 RHEL5 server machine:

$ lsb_release -a
LSB Version:	:core-3.1-amd64:core-3.1-ia32:core-3.1-noarch:graphics-3.1-amd64:graphics-3.1-ia32:graphics-3.1-noarch
Distributor ID:	RedHatEnterpriseServer
Description:	Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.3 (Tikanga)
Release:	5.3
Codename:	Tikanga

Trying to install, it seems that $release version is '5Server' on this machine, whilst the repo expects it to be '5'.

$sudo yum install Mysql-OurDelta-server

I can use a local mirrorlist and change '\$releaseversion' to '5', but then it defaults to installing i386 packages, not x86_64 ones.
